Following the same method used to install Ubuntu. Found here Although on mine it works without the terminal command during the install. I've reinstalled Ubuntu several times with success, but both times I've tried it with Mint it won't boot. It just hangs at "GRUB loading stage2..." Is there something in the Grub install process that I need to change?

Some things for thought: It's kind of hard to tell what is happening in your particular instance without posting what the grub error states. Is there not error message of any kind?

A suggestion, based on the fact that you installed another distro on your multi-boot:Sometimes when I install a distro on my multi-boot test rig, I get a terminal screen that indicates something like:

fsck died with exit status 8file system check failedhave to manually edit file systemwill try to create a log file and I can cntrl D to continue booting ----------When that happened I found the following how-to:----------Here's a sample log: [note the disk numbers and uuid numbers are not improtanat - they are from someone else - your mileage may differ]

This is a UUID corruption problem, definitely. What I do on my multi-boot to fix this, is do the following in terminal::

sudo vol_id /dev/sdbx -u (where x is the location of the offending partition)--this will display the UUID you need to...change (note it's a good idea to run the id command for all the disk numbers to have them handy because you need to change those that are listed wrong in fstab - see following).

Type the folowing in terminal:

sudo gedit /etc/fstab

...and replace the UUID for the offending partition with the new one you got from vol_id.

I have downloaded the Super-GRUB-Disk ISO and burn it to CD, but it also hangs on "GRUB loading stage2...".Hm... is there the possibility to upgrade from Ubuntu 7.10 to Linux Mint 4.0, without destroying the functional boot?
